So literal but delightfully abstract. I can't believe I've never seen this one before. All the way down to the big 'ol hanging dick in the middle. Love it.

You can see anything depending on what you're focusing on.

The figure in the bottom part is stretching or doing yoga or so.

This painting features a very stylized and abstract depiction of a human form. It's divided into two main sections, with the upper part showing what appears to be a cross-section of a chair or couch, with abstract designs suggesting human profiles within the contours of the furniture. The lower section seems to mirror the upper, showing a human figure reclining in a tub-like structure, possibly referencing the process of birth or creation, as suggested by the presence of what might be a fetus-like form. The style is reminiscent of modern art with its bold colors and flat, outlined forms, using abstraction to convey themes beyond literal representation.

You’re not missing much.

Lmao, did some AI image recognition write this? The “tub-like structure” the figure is laying on is pretty clearly a rug.

That's quite the top she's got on.
